Chapter 13, there is a female bayberry
Xiao Ye's footsteps were very hurried, and he stumbled a little, not to rush to the Yang family, but just now he suddenly found that he actually had the idea of pulling out a knife to cut Han Baocai and Sancai, before leaving the Gravel Castle, he was just a teenager who liked to practice knives, and he never had the idea of killing, what the hell is going on now.
Teenagers, the concept of right and wrong has just been established, once the hands are stained with blood, it is common for personality to change drastically, and even the little six sons around him, unconsciously, have become fierce and abnormal, but everyone is together without noticing the changes.
is as kind to himself as ever, and his attitude towards outsiders in the circle is not only Xiao Ye, but also the children under him are also rejecting little by little.
Yang Tianshou's home is at the end of a laneway, with a low wall of gravel barriers, and a tall willow tree outside the two wings in the courtyard, which is Xiao Ye's favorite place to stay.
"Yang Xiucai, you toast and don't eat and drink, you have offended Lord Zhenfu, if you want to come to the castle city, there will be no good food," just walked into the dark shadow by the courtyard wall, Xiao Ye raised his eyebrows, pulled Xiao Liuzi to stand quietly in the corner, tilted his head and listened to the movement inside.
In the cleaned yard, the two Tsing Yi guards were lighting lanterns, and the high-spirited Mrs. Zhao was looking at the messy silk and silver ingots on the ground with shame, and the spittle stars were flying around.
Under the eaves, Yang Tianshou, who had patches on his robe, had bursts of flush on his always calm face, and looked coldly at the uninvited guests in front of him; Behind him, like a frightened fawn, a little girl with a melon seed face, hid behind her father, looking at the matchmaker with disdain.
Mrs. Zhao with a big mole on her round face, but tonight she came to protect the media for Lord Sun Dezhang Sun, but she never expected that Yang Xiucai, who was so poor, turned out to be an uninteresting and stubborn bone, and she knocked over the bride price with a wave of her hand, how could she not let her be angry.
The two Sun family guards with lanterns were also angry, and they scolded in a low voice.
"My Mei'er has already promised someone, so let's find another home," Yang Tianshou, who spoke coldly, didn't look at the unreasonable Zhao matchmaker, but the fat woman dressed in silk was angry.
"I know, isn't it that short-lived little hundred, Jiang Qianhu didn't look down on him at all, so he sent him to Shiguan, which is the territory of the Tartars, it's hard to say if you can see him again alive, you are a showman, you must know better than me, an illiterate woman?" Seeing that Yang Xiucai was soft and hard, Zhao Matchmaker spat hatefully and waved the champa in her hand.
"That's Mei'er's life, I can't afford you to worry as an outsider, it's too late to stay guests, please," Giving his daughter to Jinyiwei's lackey as a concubine, how can it be so chaotic, Yang Tian was categorically send-off; The matchmaker, who had lost face, was very helpless, twisted her fat round buttocks and turned away.
The guard quickly picked up the bride price on the ground, looked coldly at this talented showman who was here and walked out.
The words in the courtyard, the two teenagers outside heard it clearly, and saw the three of them walking out of the courtyard gate, in the shadow of the corner, Xiao Liuzi raised his crossbow in a hurry, and was about to aim, but was quickly held down by Xiao Ye, "Damn, don't move rashly, clean up the chaos,"
In the dark courtyard, only the light in the room faintly came out of the paper window, Yang Tianshou looked at the clouds in the sky, and sighed in a low voice, "Mei'er, don't you blame your father?"
"Father, Mei'er has already made a marriage with Brother Xiao, how can you blame her father," Yang Mei'er's crisp and soft voice seemed very declining in the small courtyard, and she didn't know now whether Brother Xiao could come back.
However, with Sun Zhenfu's obscene reputation in the fort, maybe tomorrow, the Yang family will be in great trouble.
Yang Mei'er, who has a thin nose and thin eyebrows, flashed the corners of her slender eyes, snuggled up to her father, and her fair melon seed face was more full of worry.
Now, Sun Zhen sent someone to the door, and she could see that her father was exhausted.
"Father, Mei Ersheng is a member of the Xiao family, and death is a ghost of the Xiao family, don't worry about the noise on the side," the light voice made Xiao Ye, who was standing outside, feel a little warmer in his heart, no longer concealed his body, and strode into the courtyard gate with his whole clothes neat.
"Father-in-law, Xiao Ye is late, ashamed and embarrassed," entered the courtyard, Xiao Ye knelt down on one leg and respectfully bowed, this tough talent in his bones, he was just afraid in the past, but now he has more respect.
"Hey, Brother Xiao," in Mei'er's surprise call, Yang Tianshou also recognized Xiao Ye's face, couldn't help but beat the corners of his eyes, and snorted angrily.
If it weren't for Mei'er tugging at his sleeve, he would have almost kicked this stunned boy out.
"Ximen Baihu, you still know the door of the Yang family," although Yang Xiucai looked at his beloved daughter's face, it was inconvenient to be angry, but Xiao Ye said goodbye without saying goodbye, which still made him blush and aggrieved.
"Father-in-law, let me tell you in detail," Xiao Ye didn't directly defend himself, after all, what he did was not authentic, and it was reasonable for others to be angry.
"Hmph, go back to the house and say," With a flick of his sleeves, Yang Tianshou pulled Mei'er and went directly into the main room, but left the door to Xiao Ye.
Xiao Ye smiled bitterly, and waved his hand at Xiao Liuzi, who didn't dare to speak behind him, "Close the courtyard door, watch outside, the chicken and dog will come again, and I will go out,"
"Yes, Baihu," Xiao Liuzi replied solemnly, pressing the long knife on his waist.
Entering the room, under the oil lamp, Yang Tianshou sat at the table of the Eight Immortals, looking at Xiao Ye standing in front of him silently, and Mei'er persuaded softly beside him. Under the light, on Mei'er's white satin-like neck, the thin red rope that appeared made the evil qi on Xiao Ye's body dissipate suddenly.
In the past, when he was playing in private, he wore a copper coin with a red rope and gave it to Mei'er, but as soon as he didn't think about leaving, she hung it around his neck.
"Mei'er, you go and pour tea, others are rude, but there is still coarse tea for our family," sent Mei'er away, Yang Tianshou looked at Xiao Ye, who was at a loss, and there was a little surprise in his eyes.
Half a month has not been seen, and most of the immaturity on Xiao Ye's body has dissipated, and it has been replaced by a trace of killing aura, and his complexion has calmed down a lot, which made Yang Xiucai quite moved, and his tone has eased a lot.
This son can't be said to have the posture of a middle-aged person.
"Tell me, why don't you say goodbye and don't even bring a letter?" Yang Xiucai is not an unreasonable person, although the experience of his in-laws also makes him sigh and sad, but his attitude towards Xiao Ye is very stubborn; Xiucai, only the face is cherished.
It stands to reason that after Xiao Ye tied up the crown, Mei'er will be fourteen next year and can also marry into the Xiao family, but Xiao Ye, who took office for a hundred households, went to Shiguan without saying a word, which is a dead place, and he can't complain about the mediator coming to the door all day long, he is really a stubborn boy, and he didn't discuss it with himself.
"Father-in-law, boy, I also have a hard time," Xiao Ye's eyes swept the corner of his eyes to Mei'er who came in in a hurry, knowing that she cared about herself, so she didn't bother to tell Yang Tianshou everything from the encounter with Boss Mei at home, to the robbers on the banks of the Xilong River, and now Shiguan.
Of course, he only touched on the matter of the stone mill slightly, and he couldn't be careful with anyone during the secret, even Mei'er; This kind of adventure, which may cause a heinous disaster, can only be buried deep in the heart.
"In order not to implicate my father-in-law and Mei'er, I can only say goodbye and ask my father-in-law for forgiveness," Xiao Ye's words not only made Mei'er shocked, but even the arrogant Yang Tianshou changed his complexion and his hands and feet were numb.
Angered the Lord of Qianhu, in the Gravel Castle, it was already a big trouble, and now in Shiguan, I met the Tartars again, wouldn't there be a situation of death and no life.
"Father-in-law, I'm here tonight to report peace to you and Mei'er, and wait until next year, if I can live, I will definitely carry a sedan chair to marry Mei'er, and the son-in-law will retire," After speaking, Xiao Ye put some broken silver on his body on the table and said goodbye.
"Brother Xiao," Mei'er, who was in tears, couldn't cry anymore, and the bitter color of sadness made Yang Xiucai, who was silent, his face darkened, and he paused secretly, "That's it,"
"That's it, Xiao Ye, I think I, Yang Xiucai, have been trapped all my life, and I can't stay in the castle with this only one beloved daughter," Yang Tianshou gritted his teeth, "Instead of being troubled by that Sun Zhen, it is better to enter the military household, go to Shiguan, a hundred households, and let the blacksmith be the secretary, it's really a joke,"
"Don't be embarrassed, I Yang Tianshou don't want the little girl to be widowed," Speaking of this, Yang Tianshou stood up suddenly, "Mei'er, pack up the softness, take those books of mine, let's go,"
His words made Mei'er smile suddenly, and also made Xiao Ye dumbfounded. His father-in-law, who was not removed from his talent and fame, joined the military household, which he never imagined.
Wiping away the tears on her face, Mei'er happily went to the inner room to clean up, Xiao Ye stepped forward nervously, "Father-in-law, tomorrow I will go to see Jiang Qianhu, the heads of those Tartars will be handed over, and Shiguan's official business will be reported to Qianhu, I'm worried,"
"Are you worried that Jiang Jie will be bad for you?" Since he was going to Shiguan, Yang Tianshou's mentality also changed, touching the beard on his chin and asking coldly; Xiao Ye nodded, this was what he was uncomfortable with.
"It doesn't matter, if it's him, maybe Jiang Jie will have thoughts about you, but now that the Tartars are going south, you have eight Tartar heads in your hands, I'm afraid there will be rewards, but it won't be too much, he Jiang Jie is still useful to you, and he will not easily disturb his future," a few simple words, Yang Tianshou also saw the weakness of the Thousand Households, and comforted Xiao Ye with words.
While Mei'er was packing up her clothes and books, Yang Tianshou whispered for a moment and whispered to Xiao Ye until Mei'er walked out of the inner room.
Jiang Jie's hatred of the Xiao family also made Yang Tian uncomfortable, which can be seen from his words.
Late at night, Xiao Ye carried a burden, Xiao Liuzi carried a heavy box of books, led Yang Tianshou and Mei'er, and came to the Han family grain store again.
After settling Yang Tianshou and Mei'er, Xiao Ye went out of the grain store, and secretly said in his heart that it was dangerous, if it was another night, they would not be so easy to deal with, Sun Zhenfu's notorious reputation in the fort city, that is the master who sticks to a layer of skin.
Next, he ran to the east alley of Baocheng and jumped into the Li family pharmacy, Xiao Liuzi quickly took out a small thorn and carefully pierced it into the arm of Dr. Li Muchen and Li, so that this drunken drunkard Langzhong was completely unconscious.
packed up a few clothes, looked at the empty medicine cabinet in the shop, Xiao Ye secretly scolded the poor ghost, beckoned Xiao Liuzi to carry Li Muchen on his back, didn't even care about the shop door, and hurriedly disappeared into the night.
Tonight, the two of them left the fort city, tied up a doctor, and could be regarded as an explanation to everyone on the mountain, and they will enter the fort early tomorrow morning.
